• Visual Studio Team System Do we have install VS2005 compulsorily for using MSSCCI provider

  hi, I would like to know if its neccessary to have VS2005 installed to use MSSCCI provider to explore source control operations in Visual studio .net 2003 and VS 6.0. Thanks in advance Regards Sundararajan So, just to expand. You need to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Explorer. This is on the Team Foundation Server media. If you don't have Visual Studio 2005 installed on the machine already, then it will install a Visual Studio 2005 shell and install the Team Explorer into it. This will allow you to add / edit work items etc (which you cannot do with the MSSCCI provider alone) Also, Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2003 happily run side by side. Hope that helps, Martin. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Faq about TreeView Control

  Hi friends, I am having a Treeview control in windows forms which supports localization. When a user was viewing a particular node, he decides to switch the language. When he switches the language the tree is rebuilt. But i want to go to the exact position of the node where he was in when viewing the tree before changing his language preference. Any thoughts on how this can be achieved. Thanks in advance, Ameen. ...Show All

• Visual Studio How do you access the elements of RecursiveDir?

  Hello, I am setting up a build process to suported a hosted environment. I'm new to Team System, but from what I can see the build process targets a folder name structure in the drop location that is very deep, and includes a dynamic portion based on the date and an incremented integer. This doesn't support an automated build process as you would never know what folder name you would have at any given time, and the IIS virtual folder reference would need to be changed to match. Thus my questions: 1 - Am I missing some configuration or feature that is running me into this limitation 2 - If there is no other solution resulting from question 1, then it appears I need to deploy my files to the " Team System drop location", then go to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System RTM accepts SQL Server 2005 Express for Local Validation Instance

  According to the ReadMe, the RTM (V1) of DB Professional will again work with a local validation database SQL Server 2005 Express (as did CTP6 and before). I can not test this since I don't have a box that I want to degrade anymore. Apparently the DB Pro Team listened and reacted to the critisism on the forum regarding the requirements for CTP7.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Deployment seems to be broken in VSTO... IEcache is never used while in offline mode.

  Hello, The VSTO dll is sitting on a secured site (https). The publication site and path is inserted into ClickOnce, and the VSTO solution is published. While publishing, the document (xls) is stamped with the following information: -ApplicationManifestName: blah.dll -ApplicationManifestVersion: latest.version.number -DeploymentManifestName: full.web.path/file.application -AssemblyName: the name of the .dll file without extension -AssemblyPath: relative path to the newest .dll (latest.version.directory/file.dll) -AssemblyVersion: some other version number ... ok.

• Visual C# Object Oriented Programming

  Hi all. Im a C++ Programmer that just moved to C# and am having problems learning about classes and objects, i just cant seem to understand it. Im not sure whether i have the wrong book, so any advice and help on the best place i can learn OOP for C# from would be much appreciated. Thanks. cgraus wrote: Ah, OK, so you didn't do much C++ The real differerce is that C++ ALLOWS OOP, C# ENFORCES it. You can't have global methods in C#, you don't even have a global namespace.

• Visual Basic why is this stored procedure not working?

• SQL Server Extremely slow Excel MDX

  Using Excel as a client is most of the time exceedingly slow. For example writing a simple query of the type: SELECT [Measures].[Some Measure] ON 0, [Product].[Product-Version].[Product] ON 1 FROM [Cubename] in Management studio is in Excel transformed to: SELECT NON EMPTY HIERARCHIZE(AddCalculatedMembers({DrillDownLevel({[Product].[Product-Version].[All]})})) DIMENSION PROPERTIES PARENT_UNIQUE_NAME ON COLUMNS  FROM [Cubename] WHERE ([Measures].[Some Measure]) which takes several times longer to execute. As one starts drilling down it becomes increasingly worse with excel producing MDX that takes 100:s of times longer to execute then if I handwrite the mdx. This is with a very simple cube where Some Measure is no ...Show All

• Visual C++ StoragePortClassGuid: What is it and where can I get one?

  consider the following: //Get list of all storage drivers hIntDevInfo = SetupDiGetClassDevs ( (LPGUID)&StoragePortClassGuid, NULL, //pDevId, // Enumerator NULL, // Parent Window (DIGCF_PRESENT | DIGCF_INTERFACEDEVICE // Only Devices present & Interface class )); notice the use of StoragePortClassGuid in the call tolimit the results for hIntDevInfo.

Does anyone know where this value comes from, and if there is a way of recreating it Thanks, Devan You are correc ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB.Net, Access, Excel, and the Office PIAs

  hello, I have been tasked with writing a VB.net application that can take excel spreadsheets and convert the entries into the correct database entries (in an Access database). I am using VB because of its ease of use and quick results (and because I've done it before). However, I have been doing some research to determine what the best way to accomplish this is and that is how I found the Office PIAs. I have not used them before and don't know what their limitations or advantages are. There's not a lot online about them and I think they might make it easier to access information in my spreadsheets. So my question is, " How can I use or should I use the Office PIAs to directly access the spreadsheets I need to tear apart " ...Show All

• Windows Forms Can I store a bitmap file in a globally accessable file, instead of a form's imagelist?

  Hello, I am aware of the methods for storing images in an imagelist that resides on a form. But sometimes my tree node does not have the form's pointer. I would like to store some of my bitmaps in a globally accessable singleton object. Has anyone done this Thanks for the help! Bob You can use a static ImageList that you fill with images from your resources. Here's an example: using System; using System.Drawing; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace WindowsApplication1 { static class ImageSource { private static ImageList ilist; public static ImageList Images { get { // Instantiate image list if necessary if (ilist == null) { ilist = new ImageList(); ilist.Imag ...Show All
